New Peugeot 2008 Hood Removed & Reinstalled: Refund or Replacement Request
I bought a brand‑new Peugeot 2008 on 28.12.2025. During an expert inspection afterwards, it was detected in the report that the hood had been removed and reinstalled, which is not something I would expect from a supposedly zero‑kilometre vehicle. When I spoke with the dealership, the sales manager told me that I could file a lawsuit if I wanted. The body shop staff claimed that this was not a remove‑and‑refit situation but only an “adjustment”, that it was insignificant, and that if I filed a lawsuit I would not have any rights to claim and the dealer could even file a counter‑suit. This attitude has left me very uncomfortable, especially as the expert report clearly mentions “removed and reinstalled”. Given that I purchased this vehicle as brand‑new and later found a hood intervention noted in the expert report, I have lost my trust in the vehicle and the dealership. I request either the cancellation of the sales contract and a full refund, or the replacement of my current vehicle with a truly zero‑kilometre, untouched Peugeot 2008 under fair and transparent conditions. I kindly ask for this situation to be examined in detail and for a solution to be provided as soon as possible.
